A bag of chips. That's all sixteen-year-old Rashad is looking for. What he finds instead is a fist-happy cop, Paul, who mistakes Rashad for a shoplifter, mistakes Rashad's pleadings that he's stolen nothing for belligerence, mistakes Rashad's every flinch at every punch the cop throws as further resistance and refusal to STAY STILL as ordered. But how can you stay still when someone is pounding your face into the pavement?
There were witnesses: Quinn - a varsity basketball player and Rashad's classmate who has been raised by Paul since his own father died in Afghanistan - and a video camera. Soon the beating is all over the news and Paul is getting threatened with accusations of prejudice and racial brutality. Quinn refuses to believe that the man who has basically been his saviour could possibly be guilty. But then Rashad is absent. And absent again. And again. And the basketball team - half of whom are Rashad's best friends - start to take sides. As does the school. And the town. Simmering tensions threaten to explode as Rashad and Quinn are forced to face decisions and consequences they had never considered before.

Tell Faith-Filled Fish Tales
Fishing stories. We've all heard them. "It was this big." "You
should have seen the one that got away." People love to tell
stories of their fishing adventures. When it comes to faith,
however, most people clam up. Why is it we can't talk about what
God has done in our lives as naturally as we can spin fishing
tales?
In this six-session companion study guide to the "Go Fish" DVD,
Andy Stanley explores the motivation behind sharing our faith.
Discover God's heart for those who don't know Him and the role that
we can play in introducing others to Him. Along the way you will be
equipped with tools that will help you make sharing your faith a
natural part of your life.
This study guide is complete with a leader's guide and six lessons,
including conversation-starting exercises, discussion questions,
and application steps.
Story Behind the Book
Andy Stanley, senior pastor of three North Point Ministries
campuses, with a cumulative congregation of more than twenty
thousand, has had countless conversations with everyday Christians
who struggle to share their faith with confidence and ease. Though
not everyone has "the gift," evangelism is something we're each
called to. This curriculum was designed to take the fear out of
sharing the good news of Christ, and to help you talk about it as
naturally as you would that exciting fishing trip last weekend
